Mr Conrad Proposes to His Ex wife Again

Stella put her phone back. Looking at the rain outside, she felt sleepless.

She always felt that Clarence was quite weird recently. It seemed like he was upset. But she thought maybe it was

because he had too much work to deal with that he was so tired.

However, judging from Nathan’s tone of voice, it seemed like this was much more serious than she had imagined.

Stella heaved a long sigh and lay down on the bed.

At seven o’clock the next morning, Stella prepared breakfast after getting up and put it into an insulation bottle

before leaving.

It was still drizzling outside and it was misty. There were also many puddles on the road.

Luckily, it was still early. As it was raining, there were few people on the road. It seemed like the whole city was still

sleeping.

When Stella arrived at the Conrad Group, it was almost eight o’clock.

The employees hadn’t come to work and there were only two security guards at the door. There were few people in

the hall.

When Stella walked out of the lift, she found there were several people in the assistants’ office.

Stella recalled what Nathan said last night and walked over.

The several assistants greeted her simultaneously when seeing her, “Ms. Radomil.”

Stella slightly nodded her head and looked around, “Where’s Nathan?”

“Nathan left half an hour ago. Ms. Radomil, if you have any problems, you can tell us.”

Stella chuckled, “Don’t bother. Is Clarence here?”

“Mr. Conrad is in his office.”

“Okay, thank you.”

After leaving the assistants’ office, Stella directly walked to the CEO’s office.

Stella knocked at the door and then gently and slightly opened the door.

Through the gap, Stella found Clarence was dealing with some documents. His features appeared to be indifferent

and she couldn’t read any expression from his face.

It seemed like he didn’t sleep last night.

Stella walked into the office, “Have you had breakfast?”

Clarence looked up when hearing her voice and slightly raised his brows, “Oh, you woke up so early.”

“Didn’t you say that I can’t sleep without you by my side?”

Clarence curled his thin lips into a light smile when he heard the words. He stood up and walked towards her,

“That’s true.”

Stella opened the insulation bottle, ladled out the chicken porridge and put it in front of Clarence, “Hurry up to eat

it.”

Clarence sat down on the sofa, grabbed Stella’s hand and pulled her into his arms, “I want to eat it later. It’s hot.”

“It has been cooled down before I put it into the insulation bottle. It’s warm.”

Clarence remained silent and just hugged her,

After a short while, Stella asked, “Did Maxwell tell you what happened yesterday?”

“What?” Clarence explained, “I had had a meeting for the whole yesterday and I required them to deal with the

insignificant matters themselves.”

“Not a big deal. It’s just that… When Elaine delivered the goods to a customer, she encountered a small accident.

Then she was sent back by her uncle.”

“Uncle?”

Stella nodded her head, “I’ve asked Archer. He told me that Elaine’s uncle had been in a relationship with a woman

for many years, but the members of the James family had been objecting to the marriage. However, they broke up

when they were about to agree to it.”

Clarence put his chin on Stella’s shoulder and said blandly, “Then?”

“Then… Short after that, that woman had a car accident. The James family told the public that Caesar, Elaine’s

uncle, also died in the car accident. But the fact is that he left Riverside alone.”

Stella continued, “Archer told me that there were some rumours in the James family. But these rumours were not

plausible. As for the details of this matter, only the several people involved are clear of them. I think now that

Bancroft, who has died, and Hilbert, all suppressed the spreading of this news, it would have a great impact on the

whole James family.”

Clarence’s mother left the James family even though she had to be removed from the family tree and then left

Riverside. This was serious.

But Stella thought Caesar’s matter was more serious.

Clarence asked, “Have you met him?”

“Yes. We met when he sent Elaine back yesterday.” Stella recalled it, “How to say it… Although his appearance is

not that stunning, his temperament is quite outstanding. He will still stand out even if he’s among a group of people.

He’s not a person that others would neglect.”

Stella then added, “Moreover, I guess he comes for you.”

“Oh?”

“He told me that he was curious as some things happened in Riverside recently, so he came to City N to have a

look.”

“Did he say anything else?”

Stella replied, “Nope. Maybe he perceived that I don’t like him, so he left after a small talk.”

Clarence nodded and said, “I will let Nathan investigate him later.”

Stella recalled something when mentioning Nathan. She tried to say something but swallowed the words she

wanted to say in the end.

Never mind. Maybe Clarence didn’t want her to know about it.

Even if she asked about it, he wouldn’t tell her.

Seeing that Stella was silent, Clarence asked, “What’s wrong?”

Stella pulled herself together, “Nothing. I just feel that many matters had happened recently and there was no stop.

Moreover….”

Stella always thought that they were led by an invisible string and there seemed to be no end.

Clarence rubbed her head and comforted her, “Don’t think too much. Everything will come to an end soon.”

Stella pressed her lips into a straight line, remaining silent.

She broke the silence after a short while, “Well. It’s late and I have to go to my studio. Eat the porridge.”

Clarence said, “I will ask a man to send you.”

“Don’t bother. I drove here.” Stella stood up from his embrace, picked up her bad and reminded him again, “Eat

the porridge.”

Clarence smiled, “Okay.”

Short after Stella’s leaving, an assistant sent some documents into the office.

Clarence asked, “Has Nathan come back?”

“Not yet. Mr. Conrad, do you have any problems.”

Clarence paused for several seconds, then he ordered blandly, “I want you to find a person.”

…

It was during the rush hour in the morning when Stella drove to her studio and the road was crowded.

Stella slowly drove along with the traffic flow, gradually became impatient.

Right at this moment, her phone that was put aside rang.

Stella pressed a button of the car to answer the call. Then there came a woman’s voice, “Hello, this is a children’s

educational institution. Does your child need any…”

“No thanks.”

Stella directly ended the call.

But as her attention was distracted, she didn’t notice the red light. Plus that it was raining, the road was wet and

slippery. Even she stepped on the brake, her car still real-ended the car in front of hers because of inertia.

Stella stopped the car and hurriedly unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the car.

The driver of the car Stella real-ended got out of the car and criticized her in a bad mood, “Can you drive? Didn’t

you see it was red light? Why did you start the car? You’re wasting my time.”

Stella apologized to her, “I’m sorry. It’s my fault. I will be fully responsible for it. What would you like to deal with it?

To claim for insurance or would you like me to compensate for you?”

“My car is very expensive. Can you afford the compensation?”

Just as the driver finished the words, the door to the backseat was opened. A man who was holding an umbrella

walked to them and checked the condition of the car, “It’s not that serious. It just peeled some paint.”

He was surprised when he saw Stella, “Ms. Radomil?”
